determined easy sink slump stay
As a team, we're frustrated. We're determined at the same time, though. We're determined to stay positive. It's very easy to slump your shoulders, sink your head, (think) 'We're losing.' But we're not going to do that.
coach defensive effort extra foul game good hold middle picking plays rebounds stay
Coach has really been challenging him to stay out of foul trouble. We need him to hold the middle down, get big rebounds and make good defensive plays without picking up fouls. I think he's going to make the extra effort to stay in the game and we're going to need him to.
stayed
Short-range shots, you're going to know where it's going to come off, so I just stayed with it.
focus forced games good kinda lost maybe nervous pulled rattled stay teams together won
I think maybe some games in the past, we lost our focus and let some teams back in. Miami, they kinda forced their way back in, you know. We didn't really get rattled or nervous or anything like that. They just did some good things. Any good team, they're not going to stay down for long. But the thing is, we pulled together and we still won the game.
chance fifth four game good losses opportunity positive privileged season spite stay thankful year
This is our fifth consecutive year and I've been privileged enough to be on four of those teams. This is just an opportunity for us to play well and to be together. Every game is another chance to make it better. In spite of our losses here lately, we've had a good season and a good record. There's a lot to be thankful for and stay positive about.
game thinking
Immediately after the game, all I was thinking about was this game.
believe
I kind of blanked out. I couldn't believe it was over.
confidence earlier game passed shot twice
I had that same shot earlier in the game -- I think I had it twice -- but I passed it up. I have confidence in that shot.
breath complete deep game georgia good guess kinda team tech type work
It was a complete game. It was good to have this type of game and take a deep breath. We can kinda take a deep breath and feel good about the work we put in this week. We really had to do some self-searching, I guess you could say, about our team after that Georgia Tech loss.
definitely second
It's definitely a sense of relief. We made it to the second round.
coach david great providing shows sure tough
It just shows how tough that they are. They're well prepared, they have a great coach and they have great players. I'm sure David Noel and their other upperclassmen are providing leadership.
nervous pulled rattled roller
It was just a roller coaster. We didn't really get rattled or get nervous or anything like that. We just pulled together.
changed defensive guys hard man proper strong teams work zone
They changed their defensive sets, from a man to a zone to a 1-3-1, and we made the proper adjustments. You've got to make those guys work hard on defense. A lot of times, we let other teams off the hook. We've got strong guards, and we need to use them.
came competing loss needed start
We weren't really over that loss when we came back. We needed to start competing better and do the things we need to do to win.
